It is not easy to take your mind off stressful things especially when locked down in one place without the option of getting out and looking at scenery or socializing with other people.

We think it’s a good time to try Meditation and learn about its benefits for the mind and body. Experts say it will make you discover the rich fullness of the present moment - here and now. You won’t be giving in to distractions, so you have the space to connect with the mind’s creativity and become aware of the stream of thoughts and emotions it produces and acknowledge them.
